The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Ruthy! Shovel a frog???!!

That one's a little bigger than the one I had :) He was more like a quarter in size, maybe a little bigger.

I have ~two~ little porch frogs that live around my plants on the porch and in the dog water bucket. At night they crawl up to the top of the posts... But don't tell Ruthy.... She'll murder 'em.

I took him down to the stream

That was probably the best thing to do...

Yes... 300Winmag is probably the guy you want to talk to, though.

Evening Corin; yup, that's plant all right.

So, now what do I do with it?

It's actually right pretty. And it's not in a bad spot. Can I help it grow? Or is it best to just let it do it's thing?

LOL! I usually have a few in the garden, too, at least when the snakes aren't around :) They start to come out and croak at night this time of year--heard 'em for the first time this year last night.

Thank you! Sometimes God answers prayers I don't even realize I'm praying! I didn't pray for more money, just that I wouldn't be so worried about things, and now this happens!

It's only about seven weeks until I move.

Well, I took him down to the stream and when I put him down, he hopped away like normal.

Frog prolly said, "d@mnit, took me all day to get up to the house..."
